What kind of Wanksta? A Bohemian Wanksta!
Posted by Dave
Hello World.
Anyone who knows me (or who listened to the live broadcasts of our SURG shows) will know that I have a… how should I put it?… bizarre taste in music. Throw any song at me and I will probably like it (and most likely already have it), however make it funny, strange or unusual and I will be praising your name.
This week I have discovered an album that is funny, strange and unusual all at once - and it also happens to be an incredibly impressive musical feat.
What am I talking about? Why, Q-Unit of course!
This is an entire mash-up album bringing together the most unlikely duet in modern music - rapper 50 Cent and glam-rockers Queen. It’s been put together by DJs The Silence Xperiment and is available for free download.
Now, I know by posting this I am probably going to receive some nasty comments, but please consider this before you yell at me: I am about as big of a Queen fan as there is, and I hate 50 Cent. This “album”, however, is so hilariously funny that these things seem irrelevant. After a few minutes, these songs feel like they were meant to be this way. Even if you dislike one or both of these artists (as I have said - I do), have a listen anyway simply for the sheer brilliance in how it has been put together. These guys are genii (yes, the plural of genius is genii).
The site is also worth a visit for this picture alone.
A word of warning though - as 50 Cent’s lyrics feature prominently on this album, there is a definite bad language warning. If you are offended by the implication that you may be fornicating with someone’s maternal parent, perhaps you should skip this one.

It is so good to see you are paying more attention to your grammar Dave. Perhaps you could fix up the frustratingly incorrect references to ‘forums’.
These are in fact called “Fora”.
Nice post dave. 2Many djs are also very much worth a look - notably the beatles/kraftwerk mashup of eleanor rigby. or Eminem and U2’s with or without you - strange but interesting.
